Chorale III was a very compact two-way loudspeaker of medium efficiency. Its small size made it an ideal choice for bookshelf installations and it was easily accommodated even when space is very restricted. Along with the Cresta III and Cantor III it represented the first use of the B160 (6.5 inch) bass driver size in the KEF range.

Cresta III (1982-85)

Cresta III was a very compact two-way loudspeaker of medium efficiency. Its small size made it an ideal choice for bookshelf installations and it was easily accommodated even when space is very restricted. Along with the Chorale III and Cantor III it represented the first use of the B160 (6.5 inch) bass driver size in the KEF range.

Cantor III (1983-85)

The Cantor III was a compact 2-way loudspeaker system incorporating a passive bass radiator to extend the low frequency performance. Cantor III was intended for those applications which demand small unobtrusive loudspeakers without sacrifice of musical quality or restriction of frequency range. Styling was simple and restrained with smart front baffle graphics , matching contemporary trends in décor for those who prefer to listen with the grille removed.

Coda III (1984-85)

All the expertise used to develop the extremely successful Coda II was incorporated into the next incarnation, the Coda III. The formula was the same – a compact 2-way loudspeaker of medium efficiency, producing exceptional performance from such a small enclosure. Equally at home on a shelf or stand, free standing or against a wall it was easily accommodated into smaller modern homes. The success of previous Coda designs was hard to follow, but this new version incorporated important new technical features with a pleasing new design to suit contemporary trends in home furnishing. Many benefits usually reserved for more expensive esoteric loudspeakers are found in the Coda. Its sound was alive, dynamic and thoroughly musical. Midrange reproduction was coherent and detailed, with a degree of realism normally found in much larger and more complex designs.

Carina II (1982-83)

The Carina II was a two-way, three drive unit loudspeaker of high efficiency capable of producing high quality sound loud enough to satisfy the needs of those who like to listen at realistic, live volume levels. The unusual layout of the drive units in which the high frequency unit is mounted centrally between two identical low frequency units was originally employed by KEF for professional high-level monitoring loudspeakers. The main benefits are high sensitivity due to the parallel connection of the two low frequency units and remarkable stability of the stereo image as a result of the symmetrical sound radiation pattern – both vertically and horizontally – right through the audible spectrum. The twin bass drivers bring other advantages including higher maximum output and reduced distortion, making Carina II an ideal loudspeaker for heavy rock music as well as for the newly developed digital compact discs with their extended bass response.

Carlton III (1983-85)

The Carlton III was the top model in the C-series - a high quality floor standing loudspeaker intended for use in living rooms of average size with associated electronics giving up to 100 watts output per channel into 8 ohms. It followed on from the Calinda and Reference 104aB in being a two way system of generous internal volume with the bass response extended by the use of a passive radiator. In common with the higher models in the C-Series the bass driver used the proven bextrene cone, which when critically damped and terminated offered a low colouration sound with good consistency in production. The 3kHz crossover to the new T33 fabric domed tweeter followed a computer optimised fourth order acoustic characteristic.
